PASIR GUDANG: The criteria for school leavers to get scholarships or loans are not as strict as claimed by certain parties, says Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin.

The Higher Education Minister denied claims that the criteria set are so tight that many have chosen not to continue their studies after completing their Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination.
